When will Perl 6 be released? We can't know. Fortunately, the people involved are more concerned about quality than speed.

This makes room for speculation. Some think Perl 6 will never be finished, but most people have a more realistic view. Will it be June, next year? Is it not going to be released the next three years? Maybe you think they've been coding it secretly, and that Perl 6 is going to be out tomorrow? Or are you completely unaware of Parrot's developments, and think it'll take at least another 18 years?

On what day do you think Perl 6 will be released?

Rules:

The perl6 interpreter that is found in Parrot's CVS tree does not count :)

Larry intends to produce "one Apocalypse for each Chapter [of the camel3]". The average time between Apocalypses has been 3 or 4 months. Let's be kind and cut the length of the Camel from 33 chapters to 20 chapters. Extrapolating that out and you get a finished design somewhere between 2006 and 2008. -- Matts, use Perl;
